Re: So stoked, finally got spores: B+ [Re: MysticMoteToter]
    #22522809 - 11/14/15 02:49 PM (8 years, 2 months ago)

Another update: Jars are finally showing growth in all 10, #6 was lagging but finally showed signs of life on one of the inoc points. The growth is still pretty light but some of the jars are thickening up a bit.

I got all my things together for some Monos and I'm PCing the grain right now, Not sure which plate to use for the grain tomorrow. One shows really thick but slower growth (plate #2) and the other one (plate #5) was growing so fast i had to put it in the fridge for a few days to wait up for the other transfers, it also has decent rhizo growth. These are the transfers from the first plates i inoced spores on so they're different and i only transferred them once so i'm pretty sure they're not isolates.
i was planning on doing 2 66qts with these 10 jars but was wondering if it'd be a better idea to just spawn all 10 to 1 mono? Thanks everyone and I hope you're having a good weekend! :aliendance:

10 Cakes is only 2.5 quarts, and PF subs are at least somewhat less nutritious (25% range I'd guess) than straight grains, so you couldn't really do more than a mini.  p2g with verm barrier cakes isn't a great idea.

Go ahead and drop wedges in those grains and give'm a nice hard shake.


--------------------


I spawned some popcorn casings and had double-overlay cause I didn't put enough hydrogen peroxide in my automated aquarium mister.  I only got one mushroom so I cut off the head part where the seeds fall from and put it in a jar of LC and sprayed it all over a tin of PF cakes I made with gravel, cardboard, and bisquick in my microwave.  I think it will be good cause B+ is so potent.
Triggered yet?

Hope your guy's weekend was good! Haha and we will see but i doubt it, 6/10 of the grain jars are showing little signs of life so thats good :borat: all 10 of the PF jars are about 15-40% colonized, lucky for no contams so far. i looked closer at my PF jars and they got compacted a bit during the PCing process, about 1/2 an inch (should've just steamed em but its w/e at least they're coming along i just need to be careful to not disturb the verm barrier.) I have a feeling my monos are going to be fruiting before these guys haha but not anytime soon. I took a few pics but was too lazy to take pics all the jars, :bonghit2:

Yes BRF cakes always do that. Flour compacts under heat. I think I mentioned that I inoculated my grains after my cakes and ended up fruiting them first. Grains rock IMO. even the idea of having 4 inches of sub with a proper casing layer is worth the extra trouble (if there is any to begin with)

I'm going out of town for thanksgiving so these guys will be alone for a week hopefully when i get back the PF jars will be near or or ready for 1 week consolidation and the grains will probably be ready for a shake if they don't go bad. I think after this ill be sticking mostly to grain, its honestly easier than PF with a PC and a SAB. At least oats were easy af to prep

Hopefully your grains won't even need a shake if you shook them hard.  The mycellium will be decently distrubted and give a good enough spread such that the recovery from shaking will be counterproductive.

Yeah cakes are a PITA compared to grains in most respects.  Only good so you know you won't get fucked by endospores when making slurry.

I have never done the PF Tek lol!

Grains seem simpler, or at least faster and more productive to me.

The PF Tek is somewhat less prone to contamination, because you have less steps to fruiting.

Hey guys long time no see. Hope you all had a good thanksgiving if you celebrate it. Anyways just some updates since i'm back home, the 10 PF jars are all colonized aside from one which has literally the size of a pinky nail left to take over. These guys will probably be ready for birthing in a week.  :fuckyeahdance: The grain jars are about 30% colonized, i'm debating on whether or not i should shake bc it's already pretty spread out. Anyways guys thanks here are pictures

Looking good homez.  Shake dem bitches.  If there's one thing I've accumulated a lot of in this hoby, it's jars that I regret not shaking.  They always look promising, then creep accross the last fuckin' 10% of the course of two weeks or some shit.  Shake'm now and they'll be 100% with like 5 days most likely, and every single one of them.

Citric made a post years back that I follow about shaking jars. I believe in shaking quite regularly. Every 3 days or so I shake them til there is one colonized kernal every 1/2" of the jar... shake, let them recover and spread to a nearby grain, then shake again.

Nice tote. Ull be tripping balls in no time :thumbup:.

I shake my jars a total of 3 times, sometimes 4. 30% is a good number to shake at. The longest time to shake IME is for the first one since all the growth will be in one spot. After the first shake colonisation will speed up dramatically.

I bet you will harvest your cakes before mine. I think something is wrong with them, they have been in SGFC for 3-4weeks+. They are covered with knots and have a few pins but they are growing sòooooo slow. Not gonna lose any sleep over them though, my monotubs are the centre of attention at the moment :lol:.

Until your next update man, show us some porn soon ok?

You probably could spawn it. I would give it another day or two.

I don't know how oats tend to look.  I know they tend have less mycellium visible externally.  I would give it another couple days to really wrap itself around everything in the jar as well.
